This paper investigates the trade-off between simplicity (modelling effort and computational time) result accuracy in seismic fragility analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) frames. For many applications, simplified methods focusing on “archetype” structural models are often state-of-practice. These approaches may provide a rapid-yet-accurate estimation fragility, requiring relatively small amou...

This paper presents a state-of-the-art review on seismic tests of adjustable pallet rack systems: particular components racks, subassemblies, full racks and stored goods. The tested are the most critical connections: beams-to-uprights, braces-to-uprights, floor-to-uprights; subassemblies also include beam-to-upright connections, among other components. Tests can be static (pushover), pseudo-dyn...

Abstract South Sulawesi is one of the areas prone to earthquakes. The Walanae Fault extends from Makassar Strait Bone Bay. This fault stretches along River and passes through districts Pinrang, Sidrap, Bone, Gulf Bone. structure stilt house that earthquake resistant because it does not directly receive energy. Traditional techniques on houses stilts in Bima district for resistance researched by...
